������Ƶ’s restaurant, Infusions, is offering a unique way to get a taste of its popular collaborative cookbook, What We Cooked: A Compilation of Recipes During COVID Times, with a special take-away menu featuring dinners for two from the cookbook.

Following the success of the sold-out cookbook – now in it’s second print run – the College’s Culinary and Pastry Arts program selected five delicious dinner and five delectable dessert recipes from the cookbook to bring to life at Infusions with a special take-away initiative from Jan. 20 to Feb. 5.

Menu options include curried pork burgers with Cajun-roasted turnip fries, Thai meatballs with rice pilaf, quinoa chicken chili, scallops with peaches and pasta and roasted tomatoes with zucchini noodles, cashew sauce and Okanagan flatbread. Desserts include a flourless chocolate cake, lemon meringue cheesecake, chocolate amaretto mousse and apple blueberry crisp.

“January is a cold month – what better way to warm up then with some hearty dinners prepared for you,” says ������Ƶ Culinary and Pastry Arts Manager Cari Jahns. “Cooking these meals has been a pleasure and a really great way to keep connected during these times. I know the public will love these prepared meals and I hope it is something we can continue to do in the future.”

All dinners are made for two and range in price from $25-$39 while desserts, which are full-sized, range from $18-$22. The cookbook can also be added to your order for $20 or can be purchased at Mosaic Books both in-store and online.
